My Forever Son, My Beloved Dylan--Losing a Child to Suicide

A must-read for parents of suicides, and a resource for friends and families who have lost a child. I am Beth, Dylan's Mom, and I write here that my son might live through my words and constant love. Dylan Andrew Brown, my forever 20-year-old beloved son, March 19, 1992-June 25, 2012.
